Intern - Social and Environmental Compliance Unit - Office of Audit and Investigations
Background

SECU is seeking to recruit an intern for a six-month term, starting in January/February 2026.

The UNDP's Social and Environmental Standards (SES) apply to UNDP projects and programmes and are intended to strengthen the social and environmental outcomes of UNDP projects and avoid adverse impacts on people and the environment affected by projects.

SECU forms one of the two units that comprise the UNDP's Accountability Mechanism (the other being a dispute resolution function located in a separate office from SECU). SECU conducts compliance reviews in response to complaints alleging that the SES or other commitments have somehow been violated in the context of UNDP projects and programming. SECU investigates these claims to determine if and how commitments have been violated, and how a project can be brought into compliance with corrective measures.
 

The operations of SECU within OAI are ongoing and require continued support, with a particular emphasis on raising awareness of SECU, conducting outreach campaigns and related media work, coordinating our social media presence, and assisting in policy and factual research. SECU is also exploring the application of artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance efficiency in information management and data analysis. The intern will support these functions and contribute to the unit's ongoing efforts to innovate and strengthen its operations.

Taking a 'leave no one behind' approach to our diversity efforts means increasing representation of underserved populations.
